Associate, Strategy Job at Aptiv plc (Boston)

Job Description

Reporting to the Chief Strategy Officer and located in Boston, MA, this is a high‑impact opportunity to help shape the strategic direction of a leading global industrial technology company. As Aptiv continues to evolve its portfolio and expand across multiple technologies and end markets, the company faces increasingly complex, cross‑enterprise decisions around where to compete, how to allocate capital, and how to drive long‑term value creation. The Strategy team plays a central role in framing these decisions, developing rigorous, fact‑based insights, and supporting executive leadership in setting enterprise priorities.

Job Responsibility

Executing consulting-style projects on key topics and decisions, working closely with stakeholders in business units and corporate functions – includes structuring the problem, gathering and analyzing data, generating insight, translating into written output, and delivering executive-level readouts
Developing proprietary fact bases and market models around key product segments and technology trends, e.g. ADAS adoption, electric vehicle penetration, transition to software-defined vehicle architectures, growth in robotics and energy storage systems, etc.
Conducting detailed financial and operational analysis of customers (e.g. automotive OEMs, A&D primes, etc.) and traditional and emerging competitors (e.g. other automotive Tier 1s, semiconductor companies, industrial engineered components providers, etc.)
Translating analyses into content for executive leadership and customers meetings (e.g. Aptiv Board of Directors meetings, investor presentations, customer presentations / pitches, etc.)

Requirements

Strong financial and operational analysis capability, including accessing and evaluating financial statements – leveraging fluency with GAAP / IFRS accounting – and employing tools such as Capital IQ / AlphaSense, sell-side equity research, and other credible data sources
Modeling and valuation expertise, with the ability to independently build detailed, auditable, and well-documented market models (e.g. bottom-up market sizing), three-statement financial models, and valuation models using multiple methodologies, including DCF and trading / transaction comps
Demonstrated proficiency with large datasets and advanced analytical and automation tools, including Alteryx, Tableau, Power BI, and Excel/VBA
Strong strategic analysis “toolkit,” including framing and structuring complex problems, planning work with clear prioritization and proactive “upward management,” performing thorough, high quality quantitative and qualitative analyses, and translating insights into polished, C-level slide output
Great energy, tenacity, and resourcefulness, with a passion for “diving deep” to get to the root challenging problems and the creativity to leverage internal and external resources to develop proprietary fact bases vs. relying on third parties
BA/BS in a relevant field and 1-2 years of top-tier consulting experience or comparable, including investment banking, private equity, corporate strategy / development, or similar

Nice to have

Experience with automotive and/or industrial end markets, which will provide more familiarity with the company’s core business and priority diversification focus areas
Experience with Python, including the ability to read, adapt, and troubleshoot scripts and familiarity with pandas, NumPy, or similar analytics libraries
Business-level fluency in Mandarin, Japanese, German, or Korean given the company’s global footprint and customer base
